Thanks heiko for the suggestions. It was great to go through them with you
yesterday after the design meeting and i've put in a patch for the fixes.

To clarify, I havent made any menu bar changes in quite some time, unless it
was moving entries from the context menu into the menu bar. I would assume
downstream doesnt have to do a bunch of work every time a change is made, they
do it when a UI and string freeze is put in on a branched version.

My statement was the i wouldnt do it myself, i do not have the knowledge, but
would assist the documentation team to make it easier for them to do it. For
everyone, time is limited and i need to focus my time on ui and ux, as that is
where i believe libreoffice needs the most attention, and i'm lucky enough to
have knowledge in that area and have a great team around me.

Well i didnt get many complaints for improving the toolbars, so i'm looking
forward to the complaints of the menu bar changes. :D
